*SORRY FOR THE LIMITED POLL. IT WOULDN'T LET ME ADD MORE*
and the poll was just silly options.....the aim was for people to write what they wanted to be. Smile

well? what do you want to be? what do you aspire to be in your life. what is your dream job and future?

and from Breauxman:
but what about those of us who are already older?
We could post why what we are now and the fact that we're older sucks, and that we should've followed our dreams instead. Laughing

*EDIT*
added poll.
*EDIT 2*
added the bit at the top. Smile

I want to be a roadie for Eisley. Actually, I really want to be a trophy husband.

Hey, anyone remember these commercials? "I want to be a junkie when I grow up."

Edit: Well, Penguin wants more writing, so I'll oblige him. Trophy husband does sound like a nice gig for a couple of reasons. First, I'd get to take my time to make my sugar momma happy. I could learn how to cook like a professional so I could make nice meals the way she'd like. I could learn all kinds of massage. I'm already pretty good at it, but new techniques are always a good thing. Plus, I think it would give me time to pursue things I'm interested in, like art and books and technical schematics.

I'd like to do something either in the music or photography field for a living.

I honestly can't see myself doing accounting in a cubicle in some high rise for the rest of my life. I would go mad.

Yeah, I'd recommend staying away from the whole cubicle thing...it sucks. You always feel like you're drowning. Everyday I wake up...I seem to hate my life just a little bit more. I should've been in a band!

I pretty much want to be Boyd, I can't lie. I want to raise a happy bunch of kids who follow their dreams and talents. I'm all about family of late.

I'll have my masters degree done soon so I'll be an official librariman...now I just have to find a job.

I don't think my rockn'roll dreams are gonna pan out.

Smile

When I grow up.... Wow, scary! I want to become a professional game designer (I know, this has been on other threads as well). A rock star would suffice since I can sing and play the guitar quite well. Hmmmm... a rock star definitely would be great!

Well, this poll is a bit limited. Smile

Out of all those though, I would love, I guess, to make music forever. If I could make music and live off that (even if it was a humble income), that would be amazing. I don't really know what I want to do with my life yet, though.
